Feedback & Bug Reports for new Forums

I just had an error going to the main site, was that a bug or just some sort of reboot/hiccup?
 
was it some "includes" error? I had that for like 2 secs.
 
It was whatever this is

Couple of questions (PM related):

- Is there a way to delete PM's/conversations- the only option I noticed is "leave conversation"... does that delete it?
- Is there still a 1,000 message limit on PM's- If so where is it listed?
- Will we be able to sort our PM's into folders at some point?

When you are in your conversations list, see if you have a checkbox to the left of the title. If so, check it. A popup should appear to give you options. I can delete my conversations, but I don't know if it's a mod thing.

It looks like there is no default conversation limit for users in XenForo, and W1zz would have to write/load an add-on.

I have no idea about folders, that may be an add-on too. I don't see anything like that currently in there.
 
Looks like I've lost 2/3rds of my posts!

If they're really old posts... Good!

we've been having short intermittent 1 minute outages of the db server for a few weeks now, no idea what causes it, nothing in the log files

completely unrelated to the forum move

Why don't you start a thread about it? I'll bet with lots of people looking at the problem it'll be fixed in no time. :)

How to fix TPU... on TPU. Just how cool is that?!

god damn interns
 
the server hampster got tired
 
It's a decent look, but the fact that the front page has the old layout/look just makes it seem like I'm going to another site when I enter the forums. Also would like to maybe see another theme option, this is freaking blindingly white.
 
Mabye something like this to make an intergrated look with the TPU homepage and a little darkening but not too much:.

Nice and clean, think to reconsider use this script too on my site.
 
Not quite as blinding. Much better this way. Would like the posts a tiny bit darker though. Still a little rough on my eyes.
 
Quick Dark version of what I did above... Hmmmm...

I'd prefer this clean look over the two others suggested here... Guess it's a matter of taste :)
 
Noticed that I wasn't logged out after leaving the page inactive over night. I'm fairly certain it would log you out before the change. Not too sure if its a bug or not but thought id mention it.
 
Ahhhhhh! when did this happen?? Where's my good ol' TPU forum? :cry:


edit: where are my beloved stars?? ahhhgg


Sorry I am still in shock, been with you guys for 5 years so this change is a little weird for me.

Your stars will reappear once the new forums have processed the fact you're not a New Member. Won't take long.
 
What is this, facebook? Lol!




Thanks for the quick reply Thrackan, still adjusting to the remodel.. may take awhile. :fear:
 
W1zzie is working on converting Likes to Thanks :) We'll get there.
 
Bug: It seems those brackets in @[Ion] name breaks the @some_username thingie.

@t77snapshot no, those "likes" and "messages" will be renamed into "thanks" and "posts", but that is a low priority task, IIRC. There's still a lot to fix...
 
Yeah no problem, I am very patient and fully respect W1z and the rest of our TPU staff. This was just my shock response to the new changes that I am sure to get use to. It's just funny because although I'm not as active as I use to be, I was just on here a couple days ago with the original layout. I remember back when OCN developed there big change and everyone freaked out at first, but then grew to love it because the changes were for the better. I have total faith in you W1zzard :respect:
 
still open to suggestions ? if yes i might keep an eye and think up some of them, i think I already have a few, it's just small details that make it good in the long run, but the first impression isn't bad at all, I'm simply worried it doesn't get dumbed down like some mainstream sites and everything turned into some buggy multi-layered java with flash when buttons don't work ..etc
